I rarely can make these observations, but when I do, I always get results that are consistent with the earth being a globe.

The next Arch Encounter is less than three weeks away. Why don’t you plan to join us?

Nathan Thompson, a prominent flat-earther that I’ve previously discussed, recently made a video where he claims to have proven a flat earth.

There is a total lunar eclipse being hyped as a Super Flower Blood Moon. However, it may not live up to the media hype.

Join Dr. Danny Faulkner on a field trip to the Red River Gorge to hike and explore the natural arches in June 2021.

Dr. Danny Faulkner led the first educational (and fun) field trip to the Red River Gorge in Eastern Kentucky with students.

Parallel Universes have been the staple of many science fiction and fantasy stories for a long time.

Our very first field trip to Red River Gorge will be Friday, April 9. Why don’t you plan to go along?

To many flat-earthers, believing in the flat earth is either equivalent to, or nearly on the level of, the gospel, and thus they promote it religiously.

The Mars 2020 mission is scheduled to land on Mars today to take soil samples in search for signs of life on the Red Planet.

It is as nearly as difficult to find pro-flat-earth material on the internet as it was to find anti-flat-earth material five years ago. What changed?

The black swan photo and other similar images are used to commit the informal fallacy of cherry-picking data.

How flat earthers cannot accurately account for the December solstice or other celestial phenomena with their zetetic model of the earth.

Secular and periodic changes of the rotating earth affects the length of a day and usually adds time to our year, but the trend appears to be reversing.

Many of us were glad to see 2020 go. It was a weird year. A year ago, no one could have anticipated how the response to the threat of COVID-19 would wreak havoc on the economy.

At the time of Eratosthenes, it was generally known that the earth is a globe. Eratosthenes built on that knowledge to measure the its circumference and radius.

The very inaccurate manner with which flat-earthers handle the Coriolis effect and the Foucault pendulum is typical of those in the flat-earth movement.

Flat-earthers use their definition of the scientific method to exclude an observational approach to testing ideas, which leads them to conclude that astronomy is not a science.

Flat-earthers often respond to criticism that Bullinger, who wrote the definitive book on figures of speech in the Bible, was a flat-earther.

Last week I blogged about Comet NEOWISE, the brightest comet in several years. In that blog I posted a photo of the comet that I took the morning of July 8.

Try looking for Comet NEOWISE and reflect on the possibility that Noah saw the same comet on its last pass through the inner solar system.

As has been the case so often in reports of exoplanets, a discovery is made with much fanfare, but we quickly learn details that cause one to doubt that any of them are inhabitable.

There are folk culture names for each of the full moons throughout the year.
